The National Trauma Transformation Programme (NTTP) is funded by the Scottish Government and delivered in partnership with COSLA, NHS Education for Scotland (NES), the Improvement Service (IS) and the Resilience Learning Partnership (RLP). Scotland has paved the way in creating a vision of a trauma informed and responsive workforce and services that can recognise where people are affected by trauma and adversity, and that respond in ways that prevent further harm, support recovery, address inequalities and improve life chances. NES contribute to the development of a wide range of learning resources, guidance and implementation support for all sectors of the workforce, including leaders, to up-skill staff to the appropriate level of trauma-informed and responsive practice and, critically, to embed and sustain this model of working.

Our overarching vision is:
“A trauma informed and responsive workforce, that is capable of recognizing where people are affected by trauma and adversity, that is able to respond in ways that prevent further harm and support recovery, and can address inequalities and improve life chances.”
In the ‘Learning resources’ section below you will find a link to a range of eModules, key documents and other training materials that will help to operationalise the above.
We have a suite of openly available resources to support trauma informed practice across the workforce. Please view a summary of all of our current trauma training resources on this page under Summary of NTTP Learning Resources.
Our animation, Opening Doors, provides a brief introduction to the impact of trauma and trauma informed practice. It aims to support workers to know how to adapt the way they work to make a positive difference to people affected by trauma and adversity. Trauma is everybody's business. We have a series of animations, workshops and emodules you can find on the above summary document.
This landmark interactive document [PDF] was developed in collaboration with organisations across Scotland and people with lived experiences of trauma. It synthesises the best available evidence to detail the different knowledge and skills that are needed by workers across the whole Scottish workforce to respond to those affected by trauma at different stages in their recovery
This practical guidance tool [PDF] is designed to be used in conjunction with the Knowledge Skills and Framework to support all organisations in Scotland to develop their workers to understand the impact of trauma on people’s lives and be trauma-responsive.
This Roadmap has been designed to help services and organisations identify and reflect on progress, strengths and opportunities for embedding a trauma-informed and responsive approach across policy and practice.
